Characterization of Human Skeletal Muscle Ankrd2

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2001
Human Ankrd2 transcript encodes a 37-kDa protein that is similar to mouse Ankrd2 recently shown to be involved in hypertrophy of skeletal muscle. These novel ankyrin-rich proteins are related to C-193/CARP/MARP, a cardiac protein involved in the control of cardiac hypertrophy.

Concentrations of cefazolin in human skeletal muscle

Infection, 1976
Tissue concentrations of cefazolin were measured in 18 patients undergoing urological operations. Specimens of skeletal muscle and blood were taken simultaneously at predetermined intervals. The concentrations in serum and homogenized skeletal muscle were determined by means of the agar well diffusion method.

Cylindrical spirals in human skeletal muscle

Muscle & Nerve, 1979
AbstractMuscle biopsies from two patients revealed that numerous type 2 fibers contained large abnormal areas filled with cylindrical spirals. The cytochemical profile of these cylindrical spirals was sufficiently characteristic that they could be distinguished from tubular aggregates. Their electron microscopic appearance was unmistakable.

Insulin degradation by human skeletal muscle

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 1982
Although previous studies from this and other laboratories have extensively characterized insulin degrading activity in animal tissues, little information has been available on insulin responsive human tissues. The present study describes the insulin degrading activity in skeletal muscle from normal human subjects. Fractionation of a sucrose homogenate

On the Regenerative Capacity of Human Skeletal Muscle

Artificial Organs, 2005
Abstract:  The proliferative capacity of organotypic muscle stem cells, the satellite cells, from nine healthy human donors aged between 2 and 78 years was investigated. There was a loss in proliferative capacity with age, but the oldest donors (76, 78 years) would still be able to replace their musculature several times.

Insulin binding in human skeletal muscle

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 1984
Insulin binding to crude plasma membranes derived from human skeletal muscle was characterized. Incubations were performed for 22 h at 4 degrees C. Typical insulin binding characteristics were found, i.e., (a) specificity for insulin, (b) pH sensitivity, (c) dissociation of insulin by the addition of excess insulin and (d) concave Scatchard curves ...

Myosin polymorphism in human skeletal muscles

Muscle & Nerve, 1978
AbstractMyosins isolated from individual human muscles (primarily normal muscles) were investigated with respect to their structural and catalytic properties. The results indicate unexpected elements of uniformity shared by the several myosins, such as a three‐banded, electrophoretic pattern of light chains in sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) gels and a low

Disuse Atrophy of Human Skeletal Muscles

Archives of Neurology, 1969
DISUSE ATROPHY is a term frequently and glibly used by clinicians and pathologists alike when faced with a nonspecific muscular atrophy. Unfortunately for both, this is usually a diagnosis of exclusion. Histological changes in cases of pure disuse atrophy in human skeletal muscles are wanting.

Glutamine transport in human skeletal muscle

American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1993
Sarcolemmal vesicles isolated from human skeletal muscle obtained at surgery showed approximately 14-fold enrichment of sarcolemmal marker enzymes 5'-nucleotidase and K-stimulated phosphatase. [3H]glutamine transport in these vesicles was stereospecific, largely Na dependent, and tolerated Li-for-Na substitution.

Assessing Functional Metrics of Skeletal Muscle Health in Human Skeletal Muscle Microtissues

Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2021
Three-dimensional (3D) in vitro models of skeletal muscle are a valuable advancement in biomedical research as they afford the opportunity to study skeletal muscle reformation and function in a scalable format that is amenable to experimental manipulations.
